This Review evaluates various mouse and rat models of chronic kidney disease (CKD) that result from repeated low-dose cisplatin (RLDC) treatment while also discussing ethical considerations on the topic. Cisplatin can cause nephrotoxicity, and high doses of cisplatin can cause acute kidney injury. The RLDC regimen has been used in the treatment of solid organ cancers and has shown efficacy in reducing the occurrence of acute kidney injury in patients.

For instance, hematological malignancy is often preceded by clonal hematopoiesis.

Background: It remains unclear whether physicians should accept transplantation offers for candidates with a positive SARS-CoV-2 reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction test due to the potential risk of severe infection after initiating immunosuppressive therapy.
Methods: A multicenter observational study was conducted in 19 French solid organ transplantation units. Patients on the waiting list for liver or kidney transplants who had a positive SARS-CoV-2 reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction nasopharyngeal swab at the time of transplantation were recorded.
